One of the greatest dangers in a tornado is from flying objects. A 15 pound piece of lumber can turn into a flying missile that could severely damage walls and homes. A piece of steel with a mass of 200 pounds and travelling at the same velocity would cause even more damage. Select any evidence from the list below that you could use to explain why a 200 pound piece of steel would cause more damage than a 15 pound piece of wood travelling at the same velocity.

As the kinetic energy of an object increases, the force it can exert on another object decreases.

As the kinetic energy of an object increases, the force it can exert on another object increases.

Objects with more mass have less kinetic energy.

Objects with more mass have more kinetic energy.

As the velocity of an object increases, its kinetic energy decreases.
